NGC 5101 and NGC 5078 (Screen Sized Verision)

AAPOD²: 27 July 2017

Lying in the constellation of Hydra, the barred spiral galaxy NGC 5101 (left) and the edge on galaxy NGC 5078 (right) are about 90 million light years away. They are a mere 800,000 light years apart. IC 879 is a small companion galaxy below the edge on galaxy NGC 5078 and is thought to be perturbing NGC 5078. There are many distant galaxies in the field.
